（评分3-3-3）作文 - OG - P356 - Arctic National Wildlife Refuge

The ArcticNational Wildlife Refuge is famous for its wilderness. There have been proposals ofdeveloping industry in the Arctic Refuge. President Jimmy Carter utilizesanecdote, word choice, and examples to oppose to the idea of industrializationin the Arctic Refuge- he believes that the Arctic Refuge should be kept out ofthe development of industry.

Carter begins with his personalexperience, in the second and third paragraph, he describes his experience as,“The dramatic procession of the Porcupine caribou herd was a once-in-a-lifetimewildlife spectacle. We understand firsthand why some have described this specialbirthplace as ‘American’s Serengeti’.” By drawing in his audience with theanecdote, Carter not only evokes the wonder of natural beauty of the ArcticRefuge among his audience but also implies that the Arctic Refuge should bekept pure and natural.

To further builds his argument, Carteradopts precise word choice. As in paragraph four, Carter uses the word “tragedy”to emphasize that the consequences of bringing industry into the Arctic Refuge willbe terrible. Next, Carter chooses “forever destroy” to show that once theindustrial facilities were built, the Arctic Refuge will be destroyed not temporarilybut permanently. By choosing these words, Carter rouses his reader’s sympathy andgive emotional weight to his audience, thus persuading his audience to oppose tothe idea of industrialization of the Arctic Refuge.

Inorder to make his argument more trustworthy, Carter broadens his claim with examples.The presentation of the historical example- “In 1960, President Dwight D. Eisenhowerestablished the original 8.9 million-acre Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to preserveits unique wildlife, wilderness and recreational values.”-adds intensity andcredibility to his argument. Carter, once again, introduces an example inparagraph six. By presenting the example of Gwich’in Athabascan Indians of Alaskaand Canada which the aboriginal people succeeded in fighting to protect their landfrom developing industry. With these examples, Carter makes his argument more convincingand appeals to the audience’s emotion, therefore reinforces his central claimthat the industrialization should not be brought into the Arctic Refuge.

Throughout the passage, Carter bakes uphis central claim that the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge should be excludedfrom the development of industry and kept natural with anecdote, word choice,and examples.
